Store 0 A Suit Like this for FeH in With the Strong Ann Fraternity Experience of an Innocent Abroad in the City ''Bad Lands." ummo il ASSAULTED Drugged, robbed and brutally beaten. Is the strenuous experience of Duncan McFarlane, who claims to be 'a banker and mercantile magnate of North Ya kima, Wash. He arrived In Portland on Tuesday, and during his brief stay has become more familiar with slum life than it would be possible to learn during a lifetime In the moral atmosphere of the Irrigated desert. McFarlane came to Portland to give bis nerves a rest from business worries. The first -thing on the program here was to secure a nice, ijulet room In a Yamhill street lodging house. After washing the Pasco sands from his ears, he threw off the yoke of dignity that bound him to strict rectitude In his native town, and like a sailor after a long voyage started for the "Bad Lands" to get a glimpse of life on the other Bide . of the divide of respectability. FELL. AMONG" PHILISTINES. - McFarlan. on his "rubber-necking" .expedition, .lor. a tlmt successfully, side stepped the pitfalls of the under world, but ultimately was swept, from the path . of strict goodness by the strong currents of pleasure. His path to humiliation was via the hop-Juice route. Durjng the af ternoon and evening. he made a thorough test of the different brewery products of Oregon. When the saloon curfew toll ed at 1 o'clock a. m., and the liquor dealers fell over themselves In the hurry to get the places closed, before the ordi nance was- violated. McFarlane found himself a stranger, alone and thirsty In the North End streets. The only thing In sight was a sausage wagon. He steered an erratic course for this haven, where there was an opportunity to find belated but congenial companionship. He fell in with three- men, who were eating sand wiches. The new-found . friends knew of dozens of places where 'drinks could be secured, and as that was what Mc Farlane desired, they piloted him about from place to place, . . v waS"5e16bbed "and bbatbnI ' ' Theonly thing the North Yakima man remembers Is that his alleged friends robbed him of his watch, cuff and collar buttons, and some money. After he had been shorn, of his valuables, the men attacked and (brutally beat1 him. From this time until the next morning, when he woke up In a strange house In the residence portion of the city, his recol lection, is a blank. " The only reminder lie had of his night of slumming was a pair of black eyes, empty pockets and a defp feeling of disgust ;' STRANGE DEVELOPMENTS. , . Early on Wednesday morning, Police man Hogeboom was approached on his beat in the North End by a man who stated he had been help tip and robbed, and pointed out to the officer two men In the Merchants' Hotel as being the highwaymen. They were taken to the Station and searched, and the things claimed to have been stolen found. on their persons, as were alao a watch and jewelry that could not be accounted for.' Later 'In the same day McFarlane re-' ported 'his experience to tho police, when ft developed that the things found on the - men 4rotight -hvhatllnornlng belonged to him. He was shown the meji and posi tively Identified them aa the onea that he had been with the evening beforeand who had beaten and robbed him. j , MEN ARE BOCND OVER. .

McFarlane was posi tive that they were the men whom he had been with, and the fact of the goods stolen being found on their persons, con stituted sufficient evidence to bind them over to -the higher court on the charge of larceny. They will have to answer to the charge of having robbed the sec ond man. McAvoy claims to be a rail road man, and has papers In his posses sion to show that he has recently been employed as a Northern Pacific brake man at Tacoma. He says his father is a prominent official on one of the East ern roads. McAvoy is a young man of good appearance and neatly dressed. GOOD WORK STILL ON Committees Are Out Today Solicit ing Funds.

Suggests Tax to Meet the Expense Of Correcting the Bridge Situation. New Charter Should Be Rushed. In speaking this morning about the agitation which has been started for the improvement of the bridges of the city, G. Y. Harry said: "I believe the most feasible plan would be to make an assessment, or impose a spedi tax of one or two mills, upon city property to meet the expenses which would be incurred in making the neces sary repairs. They need o be only tem porary, and within two or three years things will be In such shape as to do work of a more permanent character. Those who would have to stand the bur den of such taxation should be reim bursed, and I suggest that a bill be Intro duced in the Legislature for that pur pose. A bill of that nature would have the hearty support of the Multnomah del egation, and as it would concern Portland only, there would be no doubt about Its passage, "The prdper representative people should get together and devise plajtis for immediate action. " The Improvement of public streets or bridges Is necessarily a slow movement. Kacn bridge, by reason of the physical conditions, will require separate treatment of action. In some cases a prominent fill of a roadway will be feasible. In others the only perma nent Improvement would be steel con struction. With the great number of bridges, and the various physical condi tions governing each, it would necessarily require considerable time to effect right plans for their improvement. "We all know how slow a process It woukl be if we could wait for k new charter. Tho Legislature must first act, the machinery then created for the gov ernment under the new charter, separate improvement districts created in accord ance with the charter, plans and esti mates made of the cost of the improve ments necessary, bonds issacd to cover the expense of each Improvement district which must then be sold and contracts let fSo- sruecA. ' th-'' brldgiV vf lien after the contract is. let it would be Im possible to limit the time of completion under one year, but with .the present con dition of the steel market In the East no contractor would feel safe in undertaking to finish with structural Iron within even one year's time. SHOULD ACT NOW. "What should 'be made plain and em phatic to the people Is that action ft needed, not next week, or tomorrow, but now. ' Temporary repairs, sufficient to last until such time as permament Im provements may be made under the new charter Is what Is wanted." MYSTERY SOLVED.

D. M. Radely of Moro Suffers a Bad Fracture of the Leg. THE DALLES, Nov. 7. Word reached this place early yesterday morning of a wreck on the Columbia Southern, near Biggs, Ore. A wrecking train from this place was sent out with Dr. Logan aboard. It was later learned that an engine and several freight cars had backed into an open switch. - - - D. M. Radely, of Moro, Ore., was the only person injured. He is suffering from a fracture of the left teg. He was taken to Portland on the afternoon train. GAMBLING CRAZE WAS HIS MANIA OREGON CITY, Nov. 7. Sheriff Shaver left on the Albany local last evening for Saiem, having In charge A. A. Watts and J. M... Kiier. taut man who must-serve terms In the state prison for passing forged checks. Watts was given only 18 months after he had made his plea. In this man's life a splendid object lesson Is given. He conies from a prominent Eng lish family who gave him every luxury and as good an education as could be had anywhere. The prospects of no man were ever brighter, until he commenced gambling. He saw that 'he could not shake the vice off and was finally put Into an Insane asylum by his people In the hope that this terrible gambling mania would leave e)aB' It did no good, how ever, and lie was umed loose to be a wanderer. When he came to America his finished education secured good newspaper positions for him, but he lost these Jobs aar soon as he could gather enough money to gamble and drink with. He claims to be a lawyer, which can hardly be doubted, as his plea yesterday was one of the finest ever listened to-by the Judge, Mc Brlde. Lawyers who; were present pro-Siwitiiceu- Si as Veing away ahead of the ordinary. His speech reduced his sen tence several years. - X RUINED YOHNG GIRL.

VANCOUVER, Nov. 7.-A great deal of complaint has been made lately on ac count of the large number of bicyclists who persist In disregarding the ordinance in relation to the carrying of a lantern after dark. At the last meeting of the City Council the City Marshal was in structed to strictly enforce the ordinance, and to arrest every person found riding without a bell or lamp after dark. As a consequence of the marshal's obedience of orders, two persons, a lady and a gen tleman, were arrested last evening and brought before Judge Haine, and nned Jl and costs. They pleaded ignorance of the law, and as this was the first case this year, the Judge remitted the cos is, with a reprimand, saying that the next offenders would be given the full pen alty. Following Is the ordinance: "That It shall be unlawful for any per son or persons to ride any bicycle upon the sidewalks of the City of Vancouver on Main street, from Eighth street to First street, and upon the west side of B street, from Eighth street to Fourth street, and upon the south side of Tenth street, from Reserve street to Main.
